Name a greenhouse gas with molar mass 44 g mol –1 and is known to extinguish fire. [Given, atomic masses of C = 12 u, O = 16 u, N A = 6.022 × 10 23 per mole]

Question

Philoid · Accepted Answer

Carbon dioxide

Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and is used to

extinguish fire.

The molar mass of CO₂ is:

Atomic mass of C + 2 × (Atomic mass of oxygen)

⇒ 12 + 2×16

⇒ 44g/mol
